What is the nucleus of a neuron?
Just as with many other cells in the body, the nucleus is a central part of the main cell body. It contains genetic material (DNA), which is transcribed and controlled by enzyme systems and other regulatory chemicals, along for genes to be expressed for the creation of proteins (neurotransmitters, enzymes, other regulatory chemicals) for the main functions of the cell.
How does the special structure of a neuron relate to its functions?
because neuron is the cells that located in our brain
What part of the neuron functions in cell metabolism?
body
What are 3 functions of the nervous system?
sensory neurons, interneurons, and neuron
What part of the neuron (a specialized nerve cell) receives signals from other cells and is also the main metabolic region of the neuron?
The SOMA (the body of the neuron) is the main metabolic region of the neuron, and can SOMETIMES receive signals from other neurons, but the DENDRITE is usually the neuronal structure which receives signals, often at tiny protuberances from the dendrite called dendritic spines, although some connections (synapses) can sometimes be on the axon (the output structure).Read more: Which_part_of_the_neuron_receives_signals_from_other_cells_and_is_also_the_main_metabolic_region_of_the_neuron

Site of the nucleus and most important metabolic area?
Neuronal cell body
What are 3 main functions of the nervous system?
sensory neurons, interneurons, and neuron
Where neuron cell bodies located?
The cell body, called the SOMA, is the main part of the neuron. It is the main metabolic center or region of the neuron. The neuron has 3 parts: DENDRITES (inputs), SOMA (cell body), and AXON (output). The axon is the part which FIRES when sufficient inputs reach it at the axon hillock.
Functions of the Dendrite?
Receptive region of neuron-- bear receptors for neurotransmitters released by other neurons.
Why is there no such thing as a typical neuron?
A typical neuron does not exist because each one functions differently. Even neurons in the same person behave differently compared to each other.
Other than sweating are there other sympathetic cholinergic neuron functions?
None of all discovered to date
